ON 2/9/00, RUCK WAS TAKEN TO JAMES MARTIN CHEVROLET-BUICK DEALERSHIP DUE TO EMISSION PROBLEMS. THE TRUCK WAS NOT REPAIRED UNTIL 3/7/00 BECAUSE IT WAS "DIFFICULT" TO DETERMINE WHERE THE EVAPORATION LEAK WAS COMING FROM. LESS THAN 6,000 MILES LATER, ANOTHER EMISSION PROBLEM HAPPENED ON JULY 29TH. I WAS DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY WHEN I STARTED TO SMELL GAS FUMES. IT BROUGHT ME TO THE POINT OF CHOCKING AND I HAD TO GET OFF THE EXPRESSWAY AND GET OUT OF THE TRUCK TO BREATHE. THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED ON 7/31/00, HOWEVER, I STILL FEEL THAT A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED ON THE CHEVY BLAZER 1998 EDITION. THE BOTTON OF MY INVOICE STATES THAT FURTHER DIAGNOSIS WILL BE DONE ONCE THE DRIVER NOTICES ANY OTHER PROBLEMS. THIS CONCERNS ME BECAUSE EACH TIME, THE EMISSION PROBLEMS IS BECOMING WORSE THAN THE LAST ONE. *AK
